Spend too much time in Borders today. Fruitin' around and looking at Husker Du CDs. Bought three books (3 for the price of 2 sale) and now have more Chuck Palahniuk than anyone really needs. Also bought a copy of the new Juxtapoz. Stood in the velveteen roped area waiting for the cashier to notice me, which he didn't until the other cashier nudged him.
Borders Guy: "Oh sorry, I was spaced"
Borders Guy: (looking at Juxtapoz) "Wow, I love this magazine."
Emily: "Yeah, I do too . . . I should probably just subscribe, but I never get around to it."
Borders Guy: "Oh. No . . . you shouldn't do that"
No explanation about why I shouldn't do that. Perhaps so I could keep paying a dollar more at the Borders? Because he wants me to come see him in a month?
In case any Borders executives ever read this . . . so you never hired me because I didn't "pass" the written test A.K.A I didn't have any facial piercings and therefore wasn't cool enough for the Novi store . . . but your cashier starts with "sorry, I was spaced"? Now that's good personnel practice, I tell you.
